If anyone could help identify...it would be appreciated. The bird had deep purple at the base of the throat, which lead me to think of Black-chinned Hummingbird. However it doesn't appear to range to the coast.
Taken at Richmond Nature Park, BC.

Regardless of its normal range I'd say it is a Black-chinned.

It certainly looks like the same bird that I posted. Nice shot.
